Parting Shade & Switch Port are OUT NOW + Patch Notes

Hey! Yarden GRIME director here, and I'm glad to announce that Parting Shade, our 4th and final Major Update is OUT NOW alongside our long awaited Switch Port.

Parting Shade adds an entirely new endgame area to the top of the Weeping Cavity, just below the Vase rockheads.
This area requires you to posses all traversal abilities because you are about to prove your mastery with them.

Please enjoy our parting gift to you.
Until we meet again... in the ambitious world of GRIME II. :)

----------------------------------

Parting Shade Patch Notes:

New Content:

New Area.
New Weapon.
New NPC interactions.
New Achievement.

Quality of Life:

The following changes were made in attempt to give new players that have difficulties with Force management a better chance to embrace the system.

Added a highlight recommending the Frail Arm Trait.
(This is aimed at encouraging new players to give the first Force replenishing Trait a chance, since playing with out any Force replenishing Traits can make the experience overall less enjoyable.)

Swapped The Flower Foe and the Leaper traits.
(This change is aimed at making the Force regeneration Trait accessible far earlier.)

Performance:

Numerous farther optimizations were made to the game, but especially to "Low Fidelity" Mode, accessible via the game settings as that is the mode the Switch version runs on.

Surreal 9/10 soulslike gets a definitive edition and free expansion

Grime isn't the kind of game I'd usually pay much attention to, but it's becoming impossible for me to ignore its unique aesthetic, boss design, challenging combat, and wicked weaponry. Clover Bite has crafted an unforgettably horrifying experience with Grime and continues to work on the Metroidvania with updates and a coming sequel. If it caught my soulslike-averse eye, it may just catch yours with the new Definitive Edition and free expansion.

Update on Parting Shade FREE DLC & Switch port

Hey! Yarden GRIME director and uh... it's been a while huh.
I'm sorry for the long wait and silence. Both regarding the Parting Shade DLC as well as the Switch port.

The goal was for both to launch by the end of this year. However, this has been another instance of things just not going exactly according to plan.

HOWVER. I'm not here to make excuses but rather make announcements!

So, everything has finally been approved and we'll announce on Jan 4 (4.1) a FINAL release date for both Parting Shade AND the Switch port.
PLUS. You'll discover that release date won't end up being all that far off from the previous estimate. Point is, this won't be another long wait. Pinky promise.

As a small gesture of appreciation for those who are still here despite the long wait, here is a sneak peak at some of the new creatures from GRIME II, thank you for still being here with us!
